Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 14, 2023, Waters Technologies Corporation (“WTC”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Waters Corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Wyatt Technology Corporation, a California corporation (“Wyatt Technology”), and the shareholders named therein (collectively, the “Shareholders”) and Geofrey Wyatt in his capacity as representative of the Shareholders (“Representative”), pursuant to which WTC agreed to acquire all issued and outstanding equity interests of Wyatt Technology for $1,360,000,000 in cash at closing, subject to customary adjustments for closing cash, closing indebtedness, closing working capital and closing transaction expenses, in each case as set forth in the Purchase Agreement (the “Transaction”). The Company will finance the Transaction through cash on its balance sheet and existing borrowing capacity that is available on its revolving credit facility. The Purchase Agreement contains representations, warranties, and covenants by the parties customary for a transaction of this nature. Specifically, until the closing of the Transaction, the Shareholders have agreed not to sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of any of their shares in Wyatt Technology and have agreed to cause Wyatt Technology and its subsidiaries, among other things, to conduct its business in the ordinary course of business in a manner consistent with past practice in compliance with all applicable laws and to comply with certain covenants regarding the operation of Wyatt Technology and its subsidiaries. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, WTC has agreed to certain post-closing covenants pertaining to the continued maintenance of Wyatt Technology for a period of ten (10) years, and with respect to WTC’s maintenance of Wyatt Technology’s principal executive office, for a period of five (5) years. Other than (i) claims for fraud or intentional misrepresentation, (ii) breaches of fundamental representations, or (iii) breaches of tax representations, WTC’s recourse with respect to breaches of Wyatt Technology’s and the Shareholders’ representations and warranties will be a customary representations and warranties insurance policy, subject to certain policy limits, exclusions, deductibles, and other terms and conditions. The closing of the Transaction is subject to various customary conditions, including without limitation, the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under applicable antitrust laws (including the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended). The Purchase Agreement contains certain customary termination rights, including the right of WTC or the Shareholders to terminate the Purchase Agreement if the Transaction has not been completed by June 14, 2023.

(b) On July 28, 2022, Thomas Salice notified the Company of his decision to retire from the Board of Directors (the “Board”) as of such date. Effective upon Mr. Salice’s retirement as a director, the size of the Board has been reduced from eight to seven directors. Waters previously communicated that Mr. Salice intended for this to be his final term as a director. Mr. Salice has provided thoughtful financial and strategic perspective during his tenure. Waters thanks Mr. Salice for his leadership and service to the Company and wishes him the best. The Board has an active and robust search underway to identify new directors consistent with its longstanding commitment to refreshment. This process has reinforced the Company’s confidence in identifying outstanding and qualified candidates to join the Waters Board.
